Refactor preview tag format and add release script

Updated `cd-release-preview.yml` to simplify the regex for preview tag matching. Adjusted `run_release.ps1` to make `PreviewId` and `TagName` NuGet-compliant by removing dots and using the format `vX.Y.Z-previewYYYYMMDDHHmm`. Improved error messaging for version validation. Added `run_release.ps1` to the `DevOps` project in `CryptoNet.sln`.
